My First Trip To The City In A Forest

April 27, 2011

Wednesday

It's the day that my co workers, my hubby and i will go to a place that is called "The City In A Forest". 

Puerto Prinsesa, Palawan has been the nerve center of activities in Palawan. Aside from being the seat of public administration, it is the heart of trade, commerce, service and industry in the province. Today, under the leadership of Mayor Edward S. Hagedorn, the City has gained the distinction of being a model city - in cleanliness, environmental protection and conservation, and local governance in general. And so, with a responsive leadership and an inspired citizenry, the tradition of Puerto Prinsesa being a beautiful and clean city lives on.

This trip was originally design as trip of attending PACE Convention. And since we're there already, we decided to go to their tourist spots and explore the beautiful and wonderful creations of G.

We left the municipal building of Angono, Rizal at 12:00 past in the afternoon, we we're in a hurry for we might missed our flight but we arrived on the right time. We'll depart Domestic Terminal via Zest Air fleet flight Z2420 bound to Puerto Prinsesa. Our flight is supposed to be depart at 3:30pm but it was delayed due to ek-ek reason! haiiissst! and that's my first time that my flight was delayed! such a waste of time! So to keep myself busy, i took some photos while waiting for our flight.
